Wonderland (1999) |
Reviews and Comments
Pay attention!Some reviewers have had problems with the movie's continuity, but pay close attention and it will be worth it! Told from two viewpoints, Wonderland allows you to develop your own answers about the murder case. Kilmer was great in this role (his only better performance was as Doc Holiday in Tombstone) and McDermott was incredible as such a low-life!
Great historical fiction film about an american subculture iconI saw this movie in the theatre, and liked it, but not as much as re-watching it on dvd. Seeing it a second time made me really appreciate the decent story that was woven by this tale. John Holmes (AKA Jonny Wadd) was a legend in the adult film industry. This is the tale of how the mighty have fallen. The story is what Boogie Nights is loosly based on, which is also one of my favorite movies. I was impressed by the performance by dillon mcdermott and val kilmer, and the overall cinematography of this film.
The real treasure of this edition is the "WADD" feature on the second disc, an almost two hour documetary of the life of John Holmes with his wife, his girlfriend, and many of the actresses that he had involvment with over the years. Very well made with people who viewed his life from both sides. I highly recommend viewing this movie if you like historical drama and liked boogie nights.
